SAM Allardyce is giving his overworked Wanderers stars as much rest as possible ahead of the Portman Road showdown. Training has been put to one side before tomorrow's second leg at Ipswich.
The players watched a video of the Reebok game yesterday before the squad travelled down to Suffolk today and they will relax tomorrow ahead of the big night.
Allardyce explained: "We have super players and they have had a long hard season. We have got to give them as much recovery time as we can.
"We need to give them fuel and strength so they can have as much running power as possible for tomorrow night.
"The players need to be regenerated and get their tanks full to the top again."
The manager added: "We have come a long way this season and we don't want to mess up after so much hard work."
